@xwigwango Great question -when using a spaced pair of mics it's impossible to eliminate all phase issues, due to the realities of spaced pairs. However, with careful positioning, mono-compatibility check, and analysis of the wave forms, you can essentially find which microphones much come forward, or back so as to "play nice" with the other. While some trial and error is always necessary, using a pair of headphones summed to mono can help. Wave form inpsection is more scientific. That help?
@xwigwango If there is anything more you would like to know we have Grammy nominated and platinum selling engineers on staff, we will be more than happy to answer any and all questions you may have!! Please feel free to call or email anytime!!
I was going to comment something that is opposite of your review but realized I'm watching at 360p. When I switched to HD, phew that really sounded great!
@jamestakeshi Great point- yes, the 360p doesn't really do any of our videos justice. That being said, if ever you are interested, you can request us some high resolution audio files, by e-mailing us mics@soundpure(dot)com
@sonicsuitcase Thanks for your comment... their accuracy can be unforgiving, which is perhaps what you are alluding to. But, we have even more detailed/accurate microphones than Schoeps- the funny thing is, compared to some of these even more detailed microphones, we call the Schoeps "more musical and forgiving." I think you are right on the money- if the instrument you place these in front of is right, the Schoeps will deliver a first-rate sound. Thanks for posting...
@viceadmiraal61 Thanks for the comment. We own many of the Schoeps capsules here at the studio, and depending on what sound we are looking for, often use the MK21's and the MK2H's as well. The best part about the Schoeps collette series is that there is tremendous versatility in adding a set of capsules, and the incredible quality is always there.
I use a pair of schoeps to record my Goodall acoustic guitar through a millennia preamp and they sound great!! Maybe one day I try a pacifica pre. You guys like it a lot.
@agustinamigo Nice! Millennia preamps are great- but both Schoeps and Millennia preamps are extremely transparent a clean- Goodalls sound great, obviously, but even they can benefit from some added coloration and musicality. I think that the Pacifica would be a fabulous addition as a complimentary alternative to the Millennia- we have both, and the Pacifica gets used a ton with the Schoeps on acoustic guitar work. It is a very special mic pre, and a good deal at the price we sell them at.
just a suggestion, maybe the AC guitarist should learn to play a few more riffs and songs, I love the videos but hearing the same thing being played every time can get a bit annoying to the human brain. Humans dont like patterns. Keep consistency but play more styles, that little country solo play is getting on my nerves, and I can guarantee Im not the only one.
@dannycurtean point taken, but one of the key purposes of the consistency is so that people that are comparing one instrument, or one microphone to another can have a better shot at hearing the relative differences. We are planning our next shoot to have two different guitarists for some added variety in a given scenario, but the consistency of the same two players across a number of different guitars and mics... maybe you will like that better.
How do you measure the microphone placement to evitate any phase issue ?

@soundpurestudios Yeah thanks, I started to read more about different stereo placements, a/b, ortf, XY etc.

Lovely neutral and true sound. I think I have about 1/10 of the budget you have but I still think this particular miking set-up works wonders.

@dannycurtean Stop complaining. These are the best demos out there for equipment.
